then as a geriatric and nursing facility until May 1999

Teamsters carting supplies to the run sheltered here while waiting on the wool clip

Dust settles on empty rooms

Dalgety Homestead beam then as a geriatric andVerandah timbers rot, paint lifting from weatherboard walls, at a homestead in rural New South Wales that once sheltered a family through seasons of work and weather. The structure sits open to the elements now, its rooms emptied of everything except the silence left behind when the last occupant walked out. Part of the A Place to Call Home series.
